Two cities are located at the same latitude (40˚). City A is in the Southern Hemisphere and City B is in the Northern Hemisphere
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

City B will have the highest annual range of temperature

Explanation:

City B will have a higher annual temperature than city A. <u>It is because the northern hemisphere is mainly covered with landmasses but the southern hemisphere is mostly covered by the water body</u>. So there is <u>more absorption of heat on the ground surface and the landmass area</u>. The oceans when heated it reflects some heat energy back into the atmosphere, and some of it is transferred to the land area by the sea breeze.

These events ultimately lead to an increase in the heat amount in the northern hemisphere.

The biggest objection to Wegener's continental drift hypothesis was _____.
Ann [662]

Answer:

a) there was no evidence to support it

Explanation:

Wegener noticed while looking at the maps that some parts of the continents, especially South America and Africa, seem to match up perfectly. This led him to think that maybe the continents in the past were actually connected, but because of some force they moved apart. He went out public with his hypothesis, but it was largely rejected, and he was laughed at and ridiculed, as the scientists thought that there's no force that can move the continents. Wegener didn't stop there, and he continued to look for clues, and finally managed to find some clues at the topography of the Atlantic Ocean. He noticed that the mid-ocean ridge is the highest, but as you move away from it, the sea mounds are becoming flatter and lower, thus a sign of erosion, and he actually turned out to be right.
